Spring, Sprang, Sprung


Life stands before me like an eternal spring
with new and brilliant clothes.

     
Springtime is the land awakening.  The March winds are the morning yawn. 
 ~Quoted by Lewis Grizzard inKathy Sue Loudermilk

I don't know if its official yet, but the sun is enough to convince us.  It feels like spring. Its beginning to smell like spring... so we'll just say spring has sprung! One of my most favorite times of the year! We FINALLY to get dig-out our summer shorts from the back of the drawer. We find those summer pair of shoes that we only wore once LAST summer and we get to wear them all over again like they are brand new. The dark and musty colors go to the back of the closet and finally.... finally we get to wear those bright fun clothes. There are so many reasons that Spring makes me grin. But of course, if it need be said,   my most favorite part of spring is my precious, Braylin.  I feel like I get to introduce her lots of new things all over again.  Newness. The look on her face,  those big, beautiful, brown eyes, and that gorgeous mouth speaks a thousand similes of spring.  There isn't enough time during the springish weather, so we must cram as many activities as possible under the sun---- and that is what we will do. Newness. 

New sun, new air, new animals, and the never aging fact that Braylin is the most beautiful part of getting out and exploring this world that she has known only 2 little years. With God's guidance, I hope I can be her greatest teacher in all of our little doings...
to teach simple beauties, simple truths, and to help her appreciate all that God has blessed us with, big, small, or invisibile.  


Behold, my friends, the spring is come; the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun, and we shall soon see the results of their love!

Papa Joe Roped in Stephenville!

this little girl LOVES horses. I especially love how she
has chosen this passion all on her own.
She's not the least bit scared... and would rather ride
with Papa Joe than anybody else in the world. 







Momma/Braylin Date on the Town
Not scared of horses but needs ME to slide with her
at the park. Who woulda thought?!! haha! 

"When ya ride a duck, you gotta watch yo back!"

yogurt with a splash of brown sprinkles, colored sprinkles,
graham cracker crumbs, cookies,  and M&Ms.
She chose it. And she ate every bite~ 

highlights of EVERY spring is that we live really close
to a nearby ranch that has baby horses each spring!!
We had to pullover and get a closer look.

Daddy made a quick stop to see Bray! 
It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.  ~Charles Dickens,Great Expectations




playing chase is so much fun! 

mark, set, GO! 

simple entertainment. 

Braylin LOVES her Kiki
We are so blessed to have met Katherine and her kiddos.

A little madness in the Spring
Is wholesome even for the Queen.
~Emily Dickinson

bubbles to wash the day away!
